Lots of tent space, but really only 5 "campsites"-electricity, picnic table, shelters. We usually have 5 or 6 RV's and 5 or more tents in the designated camping area. There is also a large grassy area right in front of the club for more tent space. The club has 2 bath facilities, total of 6 showers, plenty of porta potties and new bath facilites.
As far as b-fast, there will be continental style b-fast, and hot dogs for lunch(not part of regatta fee, but only $1 each. There are not any public cooking facilites available, but electricity at campsites for griddles and such. we are 1 mile from an exxon station that serves a really good b-fast, and a few miles from anything you want. Sunday the Ladies auxillary cooks hamburges for $5 and it comes with beans, chips, drink and cookies.
Friday night Carraba's throws out a huge buffet with lots of hor devoures, enough to fill up on. Then Outback cooks a mean steak on Saturday night with fries, salad, cheesecake and drink.

Big beach area for cats, bring your beach wheels. Gas is plentiful and $3.60-3.70's today.


So Yonce's is no more?

Since when can you believe a forecast even two days out?


I believe it over Tad's report from 3 days out. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

its getting pretty cold at night and pretty warm during the day in this dry air. Nothing over 5 forcasted yet everyday this week I've had 10knots at my house. Made putting the trampoline on yesterday a real pain in the butt.

when its cool like it is here, we usually have a little wind. Right now forecast is 5kts for sat. I saw Oley has arrived, and a couple other boats on the beach already.

Someone put a black "Lotus Designs" life jacket in my truck Sunday. Did anyone lose it?

it was transferred via the forceful collision of solid objects.

I'm just happy that there are people out there with boats colored other than white. Never seen green-fleck on a boat, but that's gotta look cool

I couldn't tell you what it looks like on a boat...

but I can tell you that Jake's green-flecked painted truck tailgate looks mighty nice. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Even after kissing the port hull of a certain yeller nacra 20 :-/

So what's the scoop on the racing?

What racing? The steak eating was a success.

We got off one race on Saturday and two on Sunday. Both were basically drifters.

As David Lennard put it, we were facing serious dehydration issues from the high frequency of spitting in the water to determine the rate (and if) we were moving forward. We got in three races.

As far as the A's go, Harper once again exerted his dominance and superior tiller technique by taking me in all three. Mosley got me in one. Palmer was apparently over early (served) Friday night at the homemade barstool with an aquarium bolted to it and a disposal at the bottom whirling up some pretty crazy rum concoction and missed the first race on Saturday due to a case of brown bottle flu. I asked Harper if it was my turn at the next regatta but apparently I still owe him 5 more races. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Nigel took the F18's followed by Lennard and Tad won the 20's!

Green fleck scrapes must be fast.
I really missed getting to hang out with everyone, but I can definitely do without light air Lake sailing.
I stopped by the wave NA's in Duck NC Sunday and they were having a driftfest also. The lightest air I've seen here in months.
Maybe I'll get to catch up with some o' y'all before Spring Fever.Hope so.Like Steeplechase maybe,hint,hint,hint...
Tawd
p.s. How'd the big checks go over?

Alan pretty much put on a clinic in how to drift an TheMightyHobie18 and pick the right spots to consolidate vs. head off on a wind streak. Took the Open class pretty convincingly.

Congrats!
